Whatever you celebrated, I hope it was fantastic! Did you get any nail polishes this year? I was surprised with Revlon's "Whimsical", what a great present! Thank you boyfriend :)
I hope you enjoyed the photo tour of some of New York City's most fabulous holiday windows this season on Gotham Polish. I really enjoyed using the windows as inspiration for manicures and was challenged to create designs and use nail polish (and other random adornments) in new ways. Here's a look back at the manicures inspired by the windows.
I brushed layers of glitter polish together to create the effect that the glitter was unevenly mixed together. I love this effect and will definitely do this again!
This window inspired me to post my first ever stamping manicure on Gotham Polish :)
This look was all about the inspiration! Using seed beads as bubbles, this manicure was purely artistic and not exactly the most practical. While I won't be reaching for seed beads anytime soon, this sure was fun to create and the final look was just what I had in mind :)
Bright red and Tiffany blue aren't colors I would have thought to pair, but the windows at Tiffany's inspired this manicure and the result was unquestionably "Tiffany's Christmas"!
The ultra blinged-out "under the sea" window at Bergdorf Goodman inspired me to layer glitter after glitter (6 glitters in total) and then pile on the jewels.
I hope you too have been inspired to use your polish/color combos/nail accessories/craft supplies in new ways! Do you have a favorite window or manicure from this series?

I love these manicures! The Bergdorf Goodman is awesome!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, these are all so unique. The first one if my favorite and reminds me of your cool banner. :D
ReplyDeleteWow, these are all so creative! I don't think I could wear it but that Saks one is actually really pretty. I also like the Tiffany's and the Bloomingdale's ones!
ReplyDeleteMy fave is the first one! Super!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how inspired all these looks are, and the Under the Sea mani looks so magical! You, my friend, are very talented and have a truly artistic eye! Can't wait to see what you'll amaze us with for 2012!!
ReplyDeleteI love the first mani. Gotta try something similar some day. ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Stephanie!

Nicole, yes the Saks was certainly bold :) Thanks so much!
Jossie, I totally recommend trying to layer glitters randomly!
Eugenia, thanks girl! Looking forward to seeing your creations in the New Year as well :)
Rose, I hope you do!
I love all of these for different reasons. I loved this series; it was so creative and it was really fun to see pics of all of the windows. Someday I would love to see them in person. Great job! :)
